Canadian rapper and singer Drake made waves on Twitter on Tuesday, not for his latest music release but due to a leaked sexual tape of him.
The social media platform was abuzz with reactions to a purportedly leaked video allegedly depicting the Canadian rapper in a naked, sexual act.
Adin Ross, a popular Kick streamer who has collaborated with Drake in the past, sent the rapper a voice message regarding the video.
In the leaked recording circulating on social media, Ross expresses astonishment and admiration, emphasizing Drake’s talents and suggesting the incident as material for his next album intro.
Despite the widespread speculation that the video was filmed on Drake’s private jet, the artiste has remained silent on the matter.
This incident follows recent controversy involving AI-generated pornographic deep fake images of Taylor Swift, which violated platform guidelines.
The nonconsensual dissemination of these images, showcasing the pop star in explicit poses, gained significant traction before the official account was suspended.
X then temporarily blocked searches of the singer’s name. Joe Benarroch, head of business operations at the social media company, told the Wall Street Journal that the move was a “temporary action” and had been done “with an abundance of caution” as the site “prioritise safety on this issue”.
